(c.1876) This romantic front gabled home was built in 1876 by Theodore Mertens, who died shortly thereafter. Upon his death, the home was willed to Christoph Mertens, a minor. In 1878, the home was auctioned off on the courthouse steps for $595.00. In the 1970's the hone's brick exterior was painted white and the parade porch was removed! However, in the 1990's the home was restored to its current splendor!
